The iconic beach, the Planches and the Belle Époque villas — Deauville remains one of France's most sought-after wedding backdrops. Wedding photographer and filmmaker in Deauville, I cover unions across the Côte Fleurie and Trouville with a artistic approach: capturing real moments without interrupting, restoring Normandy's unique light. I shoot seaside ceremonies as well as private villa celebrations, in photo & video duo or solo depending on your budget. 2h30 from the Oise, 2h from Paris, I work the area every season and know its iconic venues, best light windows and weather constraints.

Approach: auteur photography with a cinematic eye, film in motion rather than posed shots. In Deauville, I adapt to each wedding's rhythm — civil ceremony at the town hall, secular celebration in the Royal gardens, cocktail on the Planches, dinner at Casino Barrière, evening in a Belle Époque villa. A few posed portraits at golden hour as a complement, but the focus remains captured live, in real emotion.
Iconic locations regularly covered in Deauville and around: Deauville beach and wooden Planches (colorful parasols at sunrise), Deauville-La Touques racecourse, Port Morny, Villa Strassburger, Place Morny, and on the Trouville side: Roches Noires beach and Casino Barrière de Trouville. For receptions, I regularly work with Hôtel Royal Barrière, Hôtel Normandy Barrière, Villa Antipolis and several private villas on rue Eugène Colas and the Normandy corniche.
Satellite locations covered same-day without surcharge: Honfleur (port, Vieux Bassin, Lieutenance), Trouville-sur-Mer, Villers-sur-Mer, Houlgate, Cabourg (Grand Hôtel, Promenade Marcel-Proust), Beuvron-en-Auge. If your ceremony is in Caen, Bayeux or further inland, I handle full coverage logistics with no added travel fees.
Photo + video duo: I work alone (photo OR video) or in a duo with my regular collaborator for complete coverage with zero interference — no double-light glare, no overlapping framing, synchronized delivery. This is the option chosen by 70% of my Deauville couples since 2024.
Delivery & timeline: private online gallery within 1 month (300-600 retouched photos depending on package), teaser 3 to 7 minutes within 1 month, long version up to 1h on request. Fine art prints, wedding album from €150 and other options on quote. Day-before presence available on request.
The signature venue
Deauville is Normandy's chicest wedding resort: created in 1860 by the Duke of Morny, the town concentrates an absolute rarity venue-side — Hôtel Barrière Le Normandy (1912, iconic half-timbered façade), Le Royal (1913), Belle Époque villas, classified Casino Barrière, and above all the mythical Planches (650-metre exotic-wood promenade above the beach). The colourful parasols and the cabins named after Hollywood actors are among the only French backdrops globally recognisable without a caption. 2h from Paris via the A13, 2h30 from the Oise.
Weddings we covered in the area
Seen and lived in Deauville
Continuation of Thomas and Ludivine's after-wedding session: after a full day at the Château de Versailles park side the previous week, we spent a second day in Deauville to finish the album. The Planches mid-morning, the colourful parasols around 11 AM-12 PM, the Casino Barrière, then a sunset held to the last minute. Deauville in after-wedding mode allows something no wedding day allows: posing in settings that don't tolerate a crowd during the ceremony.

Frequently asked questions
How many photos are delivered on average?
Between 600 and 1200 retouched photos depending on coverage duration. All sharp, sorted chronologically, delivered in high resolution via a private downloadable gallery.
Do you shoot film or all digital?
All digital with two Sony A7 full-frame bodies. Color consistency, delivery speed and low-light quality (indoor ceremonies, evening parties) demand digital. Film-look aesthetic available in post-production if you prefer.
Do you work as a duo with a videographer?
Yes — it's our most complete package. Photo + video on the same day with tight coordination so neither team blocks the other. You leave with two coherent deliverables.
What if the weather is bad for portraits?
Indoor backup plan always ready (hotel lobby, side room, lit window). We also love rainy moods for unconventional umbrella portraits. Storm light often produces the most striking images.
How long until we receive the photos?
30-photo preview gallery within 5 days, full retouched delivery in 4 to 8 weeks depending on the season. An email update notifies you at each stage.
